Detonate Festival is a cashless site, all purchases (food, drink, merchandise etc) must be done with your contactless wristbands. (This massively speeds up bar service times).

The wristbands can be topped up by buying a voucher in advance for no fee or on-site at any top-up booth station for an initial £1 fee. (There's only a charge for the first top up.) We take cash or card payments to top up.

We advise topping up in advance as it'll save you time on the day. You can add more credit for no fee on the day if you need to.

Any unused credit on your contactless wristband can be refunded after Detonate Festival has finished for a processing fee of 80p.

Please come as early as you can. Queues will take considerably longer during peak times. Gates open at 11am.

Gates open at 11. Last entry time is 4 pm.

Welfare services - Working alongside our medical team we also have a welfare team, who can be found in the main stage area. This service is available for anyone in distress for any reason or needing someone to talk to . The tent is a safe space which can be used if you need a bit of time to chill out for any reason.
